My system clock keeps changing, off by 1 hour, if it's really 6:03 it says it's 5:03. I'll change it and then the next time I reboot it may have it correct or it may have it wrong. But eventually I notice that it's back to being off by 1 hour. I am running XP Home edition with all the latest updates.

Hi jordicairo,
Try checking synch. Then your computer should be updated to match the clock on the Time Server, which in turn helps ensure the clock on your computer is accurate. It is usually updated once a week & you need to be online for synch to occur.You also have a choice of Time Servers if one doesn't work.
